A little pain can mar mnch joy.

One adverse chance, one "uddeo fear,

SIGHTS IN GERMANT.
ALL ABOUT THE FAMOUS CORPS-STU?
DENTS OF HEIDELBERG.
Their Caps and " Back-Hair "-Won?
derful Drinking Feats-How Duels
are Fought-An American Carries oir
the Honors in Both Drinking and
Fighting.
. HEIDELBERG, UK KM ANT, Hay 20.
Last Friday I went to see one of the lamons
Heidelberg duels, which ar? fought here so
frequently by the students. It is not always
easy to obtain access to one ol these duels,
and, unless you are acquainted* with one of
the "Corps Students," lt ls an impossibility. I
! was fortunate enough-when I first came here
to est acquainted with one of the "Tetlow
Cape," and so saw a sight which many leave
Heidelberg without seeing. I will first tell
you about the "Corps Students" themselves,
ahd then about the duel which I witnessed.
THE "CORPS BTUDENTS"
are BO called because they belong to "Corps"
i or "Clubs," and are quite different from the
other students, inasmuch as they never think
. of studying or going to lecture, and divide
their time principally between drinking,
duelling and loafing; while the other students
do really study. In Heidelberg there are seven
"Corps," called respectively the "White,"
"Green," "Tellow," "Blue," "Light Red,"
"Dark Red" and "Crimson Caps." All the
"Corps" have different names, of course: but
they are called here after the color of their caps;
for Instance, those students wearing the white
caps are called the "White Caps;" those wear?
ing the "Oreen Caps," ?c. The best ot these
"Corps," and the one in which the mem?
bers conduct themselves the most like gen?
tlemen, ls the "Corps" called the "White
Caps," which is composed entirely of the
sons of noblemen. All the members ol these
"Corps" have two caps. One ls called a
"street cap," which 1B a common cap, made
out of cloth of the adopted color of the respec?
tive "corps," and the other is a little cap,
about the size of a saucer, also made of cloth
of the adopted color of the "corps," and cover?
ed with either gold or silver embroidery,
which makes them very expensive; some ol
them, are worth as much as sixty or seventy
guldens. These little caps are called "Enle
pen caps," which means a cap which is worn
when they get together of an evening to
drink. They are held on the head by means
of a rubber which passes around the back of
the head, just as alady passes a rubber around
the back of her head; the only difference being
that a lady bas a chignon, and the students
haveuione. They pay quite as much atten
tloot-however, to the fixing of their "back
hair" as the ladles do.
THEIR DRINKING.
They drink upon an average about twenty
five glasses of beer a day, and most ot them
have arrived at such a point o? perfection In
? the noble art of drinking that they can drink
between sixty and seventy glasses of beer of
an evening, and not feel much the worse for
iL They do this about five evenings a ?week.
The habit of regularly drinking so much beer
would of course not agree with Americans, In
lact, two Americans have died here on ac?
count Of drinking such a quantity of beer,, but
it doesn't seem to injure the Germans at ail, for
the ability to drink so much beer seems to be
~ long exclusively to them, and is apparently
handed down from father to son. As an ex?
ample of their drinking powers, I will cite the
following two examples: A few evenings ago
one of the "Corps" were drinking at their club
house, and one of the members came in as the
clock was about to strike twelve, and bet that
he could take twelve glasses o? beer during
the twelve strokes o? the ?lock. Accordingly
the beer was laid before him, and, much to the
astonishment of even the students themselves,
he did it. The same evening one of the stu?
dents drank one hundred glasses of beer on a
bet, and was hardly affected at all by lt.
These are really wonderful things to do, when
you consider that one of these glasses contains
almost two pints of beer. Of course, this con?
tinued drinking makes the students very
large; but the hugest Corps student that ever
appeared In Heidelburg
WAS AN AMERICAN,
who came here an average sized man, and
went away something wonderful to behold,
and having the honor of being the best
drinker, and also the best duellist in Heldel
bergk So yon see America bears the palm
I here as everywhere else. He fought some?
thing like a hundred duels, and never got de?
feated till nearly the last one he fought, when
he got his nose almost cut off: but, nothing
daunted, he stepped up to his adversary, hold?
ing his nose on with his hands, and challeng
edihlm to another duel, which was accepted.
They fought, and the indomitable American,
the nero of a hundred duels, came out ahead, j
f o the great gratification of all his admiring
friends. He is considered to have been the j
greatest mao In Heidelberg, (which he cer- [
f tainly Was as regards size) and his name will
probably be handed down from generation lo
generation, and looked up to as something
almost Immortal by the students. The house
which they nse for
THEIR DUELS
ls situated a shirt distance oat of town, and,
when a duel ls going on, sentinels are placed
communicating from the house to the town;
bnt this ls entirely unnecessary; for although
the duels are against the law, yet they are
winked at by the authorities; in lact, the in?
habitants are rather proud o? them than other?
wise, and wonld be very sorry if they were
pura stop to. The student who took me to see
the duels and myself started at about half-past
ten ia the morning, and walked for about
fifteen minutes. We arrived at the house, and,
after introducing me to all his corps, we sat
down by a table and talked and drank beer
and waited for the doel to commence. The
duels are arranged so that lhere are duels on
three days o? the week whether a provocation
ls given or not. The way of it ?B this:
The director of the duels takes the names
of the members of the corps in regular
order, and pairs them off, and they are
f compelled to fight, although they may be
the very best friends in the world, or per?
haps/even relations. So, you see that, when
a fellow goes into one of these corps he Is
compelled to fight, although he may be a very
peacable fellow; for, as I said before, they
don't walt for a provocation, but fight any?
way. The swords that they fight with are
made of a long and very thin piece of steel,
which bends very easily, and is as sharp as a
razor, so that the least touch leaves a'* m ark.
The students here are cut horribly, and some
of them are really disgusting to look at. their
laces are so frightfully scarred. The head ls
the part of the body aimed at, and is, in fact,
the only part that can be hit; for the upper
part of the body is padded BO thickly that the
-?word cannot cut through the padding. When
fighting the sword itt held over the head in
such a position that instead o? sticking, lt
slashes; and the eyes being protected by large
iron spectacles, it is very .seldom, if ever, that
a real Injury occurs further than cu tu ag up
meir faces, and that doesn't last long, for the
wound soon heals up and leaves a scar,
which the students are very proud of; In fact,
they don't think very much ot a fellow unless
he has at least one scar.
Last Friday I saw four duels. Each pair
fought for a quarter of an hour, unless the doc?
tor declared one ot them was too badly hnrt
to fight it out for that length of time, when,
of course, the opposite party was declared vic?
tor. When a student got cut, the students ail
walked up and examined lt In the most uncon?
cerned manner possible. The director wrote
down In his book how long a cut lt was, and
also how deep it was*(the longer and deeper
lt was, the more the sufferer was thought of;)
and the doctor washed lt out and sewed lt up,
and the duel continued, unless the student
that was cut was unable to do so, when he was
declared to be the loser; and the next duel
went on In the same manner. All this remind?
ed tte very much o? a barber-shop, with the
barber calling out "Next," when his chair la
empty.
